So now beneath His Eye
Would calmly rest,
Without a wish or thought
Abiding in the breast ;
Save that His Will be done,

Dead to herself, and dead

Thus would I live; vet now

Henceforth alive in me.

Eakly Morning.
MOUX of morns, and day of days !
Beauteous were thy new-born rays:
Brighter yet from death's dark prison'
Christ, the Light of lights, is risen.
He commanded, and His word
Death and the dread cha^s heard
O shall we, more deaf than they,
In the chains of darkness stay?
Nature yet in shadow lies,
Let the sons of light arise
And prevent the morning rays
With sweet canticles of praise.
"While the dead world sleeps around,
Let the sacred temples sound
' In Thv Light shall we see li^ht."
Law, and prophet, and blest psalm
Lit with holy light so calm.
Unto hearts in slumber weak
Let the heavenly trumpet speak;
And a newer walk express
Their new life to righteousness.
Hear us. Lord, and with us be,
O Thou Fount of charity,

The Judge of all men doth appear

Behold His wrath prevailing ;
In woe they rise, but all their tears
And sighs are unavailing.
The dav of grace is past and gone ;
Trembling they stand before His throne,
All unprepared to meet Him.

May we in this our trial day,
With faithful hearts Thy word obey,

" Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men.*'
HARK! the herald-angels sing
Glory to the new-born King,
Peace on earth, and mercy mild,
God and sinners reconciled.
Joyful, all ye nations, rise.
Join the triumph of the skies ;
With the angelic host proclaim
Christ is horn in Bethlehem.
Hark ! the herald-angels sing
Glory to the new-born King.
Christ, by highest heaven adored,
Christ, the Everlasting Lord,
Late in time behold Him come,
Offspring of a Virgin's womb.
Veiled in flesh the Godhead see !
Hail, the Incarnate Deity!
Pleased as Man with man to dwell,
Jesus, our Emmanuel.
Hark! the herald-angels sing
Glory to the new-born King.
Hail, the heaven-born Prince of Peace!
Hail, the Snn of Righteousness!
Light and Life to all He brings,
Risen with healing in His wings,
Mild He lays His glory by.
Born that man no more mav die,
Born to raise the sons of earth,
Born to give them second birth.
Hark ! the herald-angels sing
Glory to the new-born King. Amen.

' Unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour which is Christ the Lord."
TyillLE shepherds watched their flocks by
) ) All seated on the ground, [night,
The angel of the Lord came down,
And glory shone around.
" Fear not,"1 said lie; for mighty dread
Had seized their troubled mind;
'* Glad tidings of great joy I bring
To you and all mankind.
" To you in David's town this day
Is born of David's line
A Saviour, Who is Christ the Lord;
And this shall be the sign ;
" The heavenly Babe you there shall find
To human view displayed,
All meanly wrapped in swathing bands
And in a manger laid."
Thus spake the seraph : and forthwith
Appeared a shining throng
Of angels praising God, who thus
Addressed their joyful song:
" All glory be to God on high,
And in the earth be peace;
Good-will henceforth from heaven to men
Begin and never cease." Amen.

The Word was made flesh."
One precious truth is echoed on,
u »rpjs ti10U nasi; saved us, Thou alone."
Thou from the Father's throne didst come
To call His banished children home ;
And heaven, and earth, and sea, and shore
His love Who sent Thee here adore.
And gladsome too are we to-day
Whose guilt Thy Blood has washed away,
Redeemed the new-made song we sing ;
It is the birth-day of our King.
O Lord, the Virgin-born, to Thee
Eternal praise and glory be;
Whom with the Father we adore
And Holy Ghost for evermore. Amen*
OCTCRIST, Redeemer of our race,
Thou Brightness of the Father's Face,
Of Him and with Him ever One
Ere times and seasons had begun ;
Thou that art very Light of light,
Unfailing Hope in sin's dark night,
Hear Thou the prayers Thy people pray,
The wide world o'er, this blessed day.
Remember, Lord of life and grace,
How once, to save a ruined race,
Thou didst our very flesh assume
In Mary's undefiled womb.
To-day, as year by year its light
Sheds o'er the world a radiance bright,

In their threefold order one ;

Doomed by law to endless woe,

Righteous King of them that live!
On the Father's throne exalted
None in might with Thee may strive ;
\Tho at last in vengeance coming
Sinners from Thy Face shalt drive,
Evermore and evermore !
Thee let old men. Thee let young men,
Thee let boys in chorus sing ;
Matrons, virgins, little maidens
With glad voices answering;
Let their guileless songs re-echo,
And the heart its praises bring.
Evermore and evermore !

" Behold 1 bring you good tidings of great joy."
CHRISTIANS, awake, salute the happy morn,
Whereon the Saviour of mankind was born;
Rise to adore the mystery of love,
Which hosts of angels chanted from above ;
With them the joyful tidings first begun
Of God Incarnate and the Virgin's Sox.
Then to the watchful shepherds it was told,
Who heard the angelic herald's voice, " Behold,
I bring good tidings of a Saviour's birth
To you and all the nations upon eartli ;
This day hath God fulfilled His promised word,
This day is born a Saviour, Christ the Lord."
He spake; and straightway the celestial choir
In hyms of joy, unknown before, conspire:
The praises of redeeming love they sang,
And heaven's whole orb with alleluias rang
God's highest glory was their anthem still,
Peace upon earth, and unto men good-will.
To Bethlehem straight th' enlightened shepherds ran,
To see the wonders God had wrought for man ;
Then to their flocks, still praising God, return,
And their glad hearts with holy rapture burn;
To all the joyful tidings they proclaim,
The first apostles of the Saviouk's Name.
Oh ! may we keep and ponder in our mind
God's wondrous love in saving lost mankind ;
Trace we the Babe, Who hath retrieved our loss,
From the poor manger to the bitter cross ;
Tread in His steps, assisted by His grace,
Till man's first heavenly state again takes place.
Then may we hope, the angelic hosts among,
To join, redeemed, a glad triumphant throng:
He that was born upon this joyful day
Around us all His glory shall display;
Saved by His love, incessant we shall sing
Eternal praise to heaven's Almighty King. Amen.

W Born of God eternally,
Who didst will for our salvation
To be born on earth and die ;
"Well Thy saints have kept their station,
Watching till Thine hour drew nigh.
Now 'tis come, and faith espies Thee;
Like an eaglet in the morn.
One in steadfast worship eyes Thee,
Thy beloved. Thy latest born;
In Thy glory he descries Thee
Reigning from the tree of scorn.
He upon thy bosom lying
Thy loved tokens learned by heart;

Landed on th' eternal shore;
And his witness we receiving

On Thy bosom leaning, Lord ;

Answer kind, didst Thou accord,
Wisdom for Thy Church to ponder

How Thy judgments earthward move,
Scrolls unfolded, trumpets pealing,

1 These are they which follow the Lamb whithersoever He goeth.*'
A HYMN for Martyrs sweetly sing ;
For Innocents your praises bring;
Of whom in tears was earth bereaved,
Whom heaven with songs of joy received :
Whose angels see the Fathke's Face
World without end, and hymn His grace.
And, while they praise their glorious King,
A hymn for Martyrs sweetly sing.
A voice from Ram ah was there sent,
A voice of weeping and lament.
While Rachel mourned her children sore
Whom for the tyrant's sword she bore.
Triumphal is their glory now
Whom earthly suffering could not bow;
For whom by cruel torments rent,
A voice from llamah was there sent.
44
Fear not, O little flock and blest,
The lion that your life oppressed:
To heavenly pastures ever new
The heavenly Shepherd leadeth yon,
Who dwelling now on Sion's hill
The Lamb's own footsteps follow still,
By tyrant there no more distressed ;
Fear not, O little flock and blest
And every tear is wiped away
By your dear Fathkb's hands for aye:
Death hath no power to hurt you more;
Your own is life's eternal shore.
And all who. good seed bearing, weep,
In ererlastingjoy shall reap:
What time they shine in heavenly day,
And every tear is wiped away. Anieii.

0 BLESSED DAY, when first was poured
The Blood of our redeeming Lord!
O Blessed Day, when first began
His sufferings borne for sinful man !
Scarce entered on this life of woe,
His Infant Blood begins to flow;
A foretaste of His death He feels,
An earnest of His love reveals.
From heaven descending to fulfil
The bidding of His Father's will,
A victim even now He lies
Before the day of sacrifice.
For love of us His woes begin ;
The Sinless suffers for our sin;
The Law's great Maker for our aid
Obedient to the Law is made.
The wound He through the Law endures
Our freedom from that Law secures;
Henceforth a holier law prevails,
The law of love which never fails.
Lord, circumcise our hearts, we pray,
And take what is not Thine away;
Write Thine own Name within our hearts,
Thy law upon our inmost parts.
O Lord, the Virgin-born, to Thee
Eternal praise and glory be ;
"Whom with the Father we adore
And Holy Ghost for evermore. Amen.
Hymn 57.
*' Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus."
THE Word, with God the Fathfr One
Before the heavens and earth were made,
Is now the Virgin's new-born Son,
Upon her lowly bosom laid.
Already o'er His sinless Head
The streams of wrath begin to flow ;
Already on His infant bed
The taste of grief He deigns to know.
The lowliest poverty he bears
That we may be with wealth supplied ;
He weeps ; O precious grief and tears!
Through Him the world is purified.
An humble dress, a mean abode,
A life obscure His glory hide ;
Proud man, behold thy lowly God,
And let the sight destroy thy pride.
Jf.8U, Who earnest from on high
To be the Lamb for sinners slain,
Leave not Thy ransomed flock to die.
Nor let Thy toil be spent in vain. Amen.

The heavenly Lamb in meekness stood,
That He, to Whom no sin was known,
Might cleanse His people from their own.

When water reddened into wine;

In streams that nature ne'er bestowed.

Evermore be led to Thee.
As with joyful steps they sped
To that lowly manger-bed ;
There to bend the knee before
Him Whom heaven and earth adore
So may we with willing feet
Ever seek the mercy-seat
As they offered gifts most rare
At that manger rude and bare;
So may we with holy joy,
Pure and free from sin's" alloy,
All onr costliest treasures bring,
Cueist ! to Thee our heavenly King
Holy Jesus, every day
Keep us in the narrow way ,
And, when earthly things are past,
Bring our ransomed souls at last
Where they need no star to guide,
Where no clouds Thy glory hide.
10
In the heavenly country bright
Need they no created light ;
Thou its Light, its Joy, its Crown,
Thou its Sun which goes not down ;
There for ever may we sing
Alleluias to our King. Amen.

HAIL to the Lord's Annointed,
Great. David's greater Son I
Hail, in the time appointed,
His reign on earth hegun!
He comes to break oppression,
To set the captive free ;
To take away trangression,
And rule in equity.
He shall come down like showers
Upon the fruirful earth,
And joy and hope, like flowers,
Spring in His path to birth;
Before Him on the mountains
Shall Peace, the herald, go ;
From hill to vale the fountains
Of Righteousness o'erflow.
Kings shall bow down before Him,
And go d and incense bring;
All nations shall adore Him,
His praise all people sing ;
To Him shall prayer unceasing,
And daily vows ascend ;
His kingdom still increasing,
A kingdom without end.
O'er every foe victorious,
He on His throne shall rest ;
From age to ago more glorious,
All-blessiug and all-blessed:
The tide of time shall never
His covenant remove ;
His Name shall stand for ever,
His changeless Name of love. Amen.

Voice of joy that cannot die ;

Ever dear to ch< irs on high ;

Thus they sing eternally.

An endless rest of joy belongs;
And heavenly choirs are ever free
To sing on high their festal songs.
But we are fallen creatures here,
Where pain and sorrow daily come;

Sing out, as they, sweet songs of Home:

Grant us to weep for deeds of ill
That banish us so long from Thee :
But weeping, grant us faith to rest
In hope upon Thy loving care ;
Till Thou restore us, with the blest,
Their songs of praise in heaven to share.

Hark ! all the tribes ilosanna cry ;
O Saviour meek, pursue Thy road
With palms and scattered garments stroked.

In lowly pomp, ride on to die:
O Cueist, Thy triumphs now begin
O'er captive death and conquered sin.
Ride on ! ride on in majesty !
The angel armies of the sky
Look down with sad and wondering eyes
To see the approaching Sacrifice.
Ride on ! ride on in majesty !
The last and fiercest strife is nigh :
The Father on His sapphire Throne
Awaits His own anointed Sox.
Ride on ! ride on in majesty !
In lowly pomp, ride on to die ;
Bow Thy meek Head to mortal pain,
Then take, O God, Thy power, and reign.

MY GOD. I love Thee ; not because
I hope for heaven thereby,
Nor yet because who love Thee not
Must burn eternally.
Thou. Omy .Tfsus. Thou didst me
Upon the Cross embrace ;
For me didst bear the nails, and spear,
And manifold disgrace.
And griefs and torments numberless,
And sweat of agony;
Ye., death itself; and all for me
Who was Thine enemy.
' We love Ilim because He first loved us."
Then Why. O blessed Ji sr Christ,
Should I not love Thee well ?
Not for the hope of winning heaven,
Nor of escaping hell ;
Not with the hope of gaining aught.
Not se king a reward ;
But as Thyself hast loved me,
O ever-loving Lord.
So would I love Thee, dearest Lord,
And in Thy praise will sing;
Solely because Thou art my Gor>,
And my Eternal King. Amen.

0 SINNER, lift the eye of faith,
To true repentance turning;
Bethink thee of the curse of sin,
Its awful guilt" discerning ;
Upon the Crucified One look
And thou shalt read, as in a book,
What well is worth thy learning.
Look on His Head, that bleeding Head,
With crown of thorns surrounded
Look on His sacred Hands and Feet,
Which piercing nails have wounded ;
Bee every Limb with scourges rent:
0.3 Him, the Just, the Innocent,
What in dice hath abounded!
'Tis not alone those Limbs are racked,
Bat friends too are forsaki ig;
And more than all, for thankless man
That tender Heart is aching;
Oh. fearful was the pain and scorn
By Jesus. Son of Mary, borne.
Their peace for sinners making.
None ever knew such pain before,
Such infinite affliction ;
None ever felt a grief like His
In that dread crucifixion :
For us He bare those bitter throes,
For us those agonizing woes
In oft-renewed infliction.
O sinner, mark, and ponder well
Sin's awful condemnation ;
Think what a sacrifice it cost
To purchase Thy salvation ;
Had Jesus never bled and died.
Then what could thee and all betide
But uttermost damnation?
Losr>. give us grace to flee from sin,
And Satan's wiles ensnaring.
And from those everlasting flames
For evil ones preparing.
Jr.su, we thank Thee, and entreat
To rest for ever at Thy feet.
Thy heavenly glory'sharing. Amen.

With God the Father ever One,

Thy Hand, when first the world began,
Made in Thine own pure Image man ;
And linked to fleshly form of earth
A living soul of heavenly birth.
And when the envious, crafty foe
Had marred Thy noblest work below,
Thou didst our ruined state repair
By deigning flesh Thyself to wear.
Once of a Virgin born to save.
And now new-born from death's dark grave,
O Christ. Thou bidst as rise with Thee
From death to immortality.
Eternal Shepherd, Thou art wont
To cleanse Thy sheep within the font ;
That mystic bath, that grave of sin,
Where ransomed souls new life begin.
Divine Redeemer, Thou didst deign
To bear for us the Cross of pain ;
And freelv pay the precious nrice
Of all Thy Bh od in sacrifice ;

Unceasing Paschal joy impart,

Now let our songs His triumph tell,
Who burst the bands of death and hell,
And ever lives to save.

The First-begotten of the dead,
For us He rose, our glorious Head,

What though the saints like Him shall die,
They share their Leader's victory,
And triumph with their King.

For Jesus will their spirits save,
And raise their slumbering dust :
O risen Lord, in Thee we live,
To Thee our ransomed souls we give,
To Thee our bodies trust. Amen.

' Ilere have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come."
BRIEF life is here our portion ;
Brief sorrow, short-lived care :
The life that knows no ending,
The tearless life, is there.
O happy retribution !
Short toil, eternal rest ;
For mortals and for sinners
A mansion with the blest.
And now we fight the battle,
But then shall wear the crown
Of full and everlasting
And passionless renown ;
And now we watch and struggle,
And now we live in hope,
And Sion in her anguish
With Babylon must cope ;
But He Whom now we trust in
Shall then be seen and known,
And they that know and see Him
Shall have Him for their own.
The morning shall awaken,
The shadow shall decay,
And each true-hearted servant
Shall shine as doth the day ;
There God, our King and Portion,
In fulness of His grace,
Shall we behold for ever,
And worship face to face.

Is of all joy the spring:
Jov past all speech of glory full,
But sfored where none may know,
As manna hid in dewy heaven,
As pearls in ocean low.

Loud of the Ark. put forth Thine hand
And take Thy wanderers in.

Great your strength, if great your need.
Let your drooping hearts be glad ;

Fight, nor think the battle long,
Soon shall victory wake your song.
Onward then to glory move ;

"The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His
Christ ; and lie shall reign for ever and ever."
JESUS shall reign where' er the sun
Doth his successive journeys run ;
His kingdom stretch from shore to shore,
Till moons shall wax and wane no more.
People and realms of every tongue
Dwell on ilis lore with sweetest song,
And infant voices shall proclaim
Their early blessings on His Name.
Blessings abound where'er He reigns ;
The prisoner leaps to lose His chains;
The weary find eternal rest,
And all the sons of want are blest.
Let every creature rise and bring
Peculiar honours to our King ;
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud Amen. Amen.

The greatness of redeeming love,

Desire in vain its depths to see ;

The length and breadth and height.

LORD of the harvest, once again
We thank Thee for the ripened grain;
For crops safe carried, sent to cheer
Thy servants through another year ;
For all sveet holy thoughts supplied
By seed-time, and by harvest-tide.
The bare dead grain, in autumn sown,
Its robe of vernal green puts on ;
Glad from its wintry grave it springs,
Fresh garnished by the King oi Kir.gs :
So, Lord, to those who sleep in Thee
Shall new and glorious bodies be.
Nor vainly of Thy "Word we ask
A lesson from the reaper's task :
So shall Thine angels issue forth ;
The tares be burnt ; the just of earth,
To wind and storm exposed no more,
Be gathered to their Fatiiek's store.
Dailv. O Losn, our prayers be said,
As Thou hast taught, for daily bread ;
But not alone our bodies t\ ed,
Supply our fainting spirits' need ;
O Bread of Life, from day to day
Be Thou their Comfort, Food, and Stay!

Thine awful judgments are abroad,
O shield us lest we die.

Walks forth with tainted breath ;

Bestrews the land with death.
O look with pity on the scene

And let Thine angel stand between
The living and the dead.
With contrite hearts to Thee, our King,
We turn who oft have strayed ;
Accept the sacrifice we bring,
And let the plague be stayed. Amen.

" This is none other but the House of

H dlow this house with Thy sure love,
And bless our festival.
B re from the Font is poured
Grace on each guilty child ;

The Lamb of Goo Himself imparts

The Judge acquits, and grace divine
Restores the dead in sin.
Yea, God enthroned on high
Here also dwells to bless ;
Here trains adoring souls that sigh
His mansions to possess.
Ag i .st this holy home
Rude tempests harmless beat,
And Satan's angels fiercely come
But to endure defeat.
All might, all praise be Thine,

While endless ages run. Amen.

1 1 saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God, out of heaven,
prepared as a bride adorned for her husband."
BLESSED city, heavenly Salem,
Vision dear of peace and love,
Who of living stones art builded
In the height of heaven above,
And, with angel hosts encircled,
As a bride to earth dost move ;
From celestial realms descending,
Bridal slory round thee shed,
Meet for Him Whose love espoused thee,
To tby Lord shalt thou be led ;
All thy streets and all thy bulwarks
Of pure gold are fashioned.
Bright thy gates of pearl are shining,
They are open evermore ;
And by virtue of His merits
For the oilier verses see next page.
Thither faithful souls do soar,
Who for Christ's dear Name in this world
Pain and tribulation bore.
Many a blow and biting sculpture
Polished well those stones elect,
In their places now compacted
By the heavenly Architect,
Who therewith hath willed for ever
That His Palace should be decked.
Praise and honour to the Father,
Praise and honour to the Sox,
Praise and honour to the Spirit,
Ever Three, and ever One,
One in might and One in glory,
While eternal ages run. Amen.

OGOD, Thy soldiers' great Reward,
Their Portion, Crown, and faithful
From all transgressions set us free [Lord,
Who siig Thy martyr's victory.
By wisdom taught he learned to know
The vanity of all below,
The fleeting joys of earth disdained,
And everlasting glory gained.
Right manfully his cross he bore,
And ran his race of torments sore ;
For Thee he poured his life away,
With Thee he lrws in e ldless day.
We therefore pray Thee, Lord of Love,
Regard us from Tny throne above ;
On this Thy martyr's triumph-day,
Wash every stain of sin away*
All praise to God the Father be,
All praise Eternal Son, to Thee,
Whom with the Spirit we adore
For ever and for evermore. Amen.

u Who can find a virtuous woman ? f->r her price is above rubies : the heart of her
husband doth safely trust in her."
HOW blest the matron, who, endued
With holy zeal and lortitud »,
lias wo'i through grace a saintly fame,
And owns a dear and honoured name.
Such holy love inflamed her breast
She would not seek on earth her rest,
But, strong in faith and patience, trod
The narrow way that leads to God.
She learned, through fasting, to control
The flesh that weigheth down the soul,
And then by prayer's sweet food sustained
To seek the joys she now has gained.
O Christ, from Whom allvi-tue springs,
Who oily doest wondrous things,
To Thee, the King of Sai its, we pray,
Accept and bless Thy flock to-day.

■ The Loud shall be thine everlasting Light"
THE radiant morn hath passed away,
And spent too soon her golden store ;
The shadows of departing day
Creep on once more.
Our life is but a fading dawn,
Its glorious noon how quicklv past;
Lead us. O Christ, when all' is gona,
Safe home at last.
Oh. by Thy soul-inspiring grace
Uplift our hearts to realms on high ;
Help us to look to that bright place
Beyond the sky ;
Where light, and love, and joy, andpeaet
In undivided empire reign.
And thronging angels nev^r cease
Their deathless strain ;
"Where saints are clothed in spotless white,
And evening shadows never fall,
Where Thou. Eternal Light of Light,
Art Lord of alL Amen.

All thanks, O Lord, to Thee ;

O Jesu, keep me in Thy sight,
And guard me through the coming night

11 And at even, when the sun did set, they
and all that were possessed with devils,
at the door.1'
AT even ere the sun was set,
The sick O Lobd, around Thee lay;
Oh, in what divers pains they met !
Oh, with what joy they went away !
Once more 'tis eventide, and we
Oppressed with various ills draw near :
What if Thy form we cannot see ?
AVe know and feel that Thou art here.
O Savious Christ, our woes dispel ;
For tome are sick, and some are sad,
And irome have never loved Thee well,
And some have lost the love they had ;
And some have found the world is vain,
Yet from the world they break not free ;
brought unto Him all that were diseased,
And all the city was gathered together
And some have friends who give them pain,
Yet have not sought a friend in Thee ;
And none, O Loud, have perfect rest,
For none are wholly free from sin ;
And they, who fain would serve Thee best,
Are conscious most of wrong within.
O Savioxjii Christ, Thou too art Man ;
Thou hast been troubled, tempted, tried ;
Thy kind but searching glance can scan
The very wounds that shame would hide ;
The touch has still its ancient power ;
No word from Thee can fruitless fall ;
Hear in this solemn evening hour,
And in Thy mercy heal us all. Amen.

SAVIOUR, again to Thy dear Name we raise
With one accord our parting hymn of praise ;
We stand to bless Thee ere our worship cease,
Then, lowly kneeling, wait Thy word cf peace.
Grant us Thy peace upon our homeward way ;
With Thee began, with Thee shall end the day;
Guard Thou the lips from sin, the hearts from shamt,
That in this house have called upon Thy Name.
Grant us Thy peace, Lord, through the coming night,
Turn Thou for us its darkness into light ;
From harm and danger keep Thy children free,
For dark and light are both alike to Thee.
Grant us Thy p^ace throughout our earthly life,
Our balm in sorrow, and our stay in strife ;
Then, when Thy voice shall bid our conflict cease,
Call us, O Lord, to Thine eternal peace. Amen.

' Upon the first day of the week, when the disciples came together.1
ODAY of rest and gladness,
O day of joy and light,
O balm of care and sadness,
Most beautiful, most bright;
On thee the high and lowly
Before th' eternal Throne
Sing Holy, Holy, Holy,
To the great Thkee in One.
On thee, at the creation,
The light first had its birth ;
On thee for our salvation
Cueist rose from depths of earth ;
On thee our Losn victorious
The SpruiT sent from heaven;
And thus on thee most glorious
A triple light was given.
Thou art a cooling fountain
In life's dry dreary sand ;
From thee, like Pisgiih's mountain,
We view our promised land ;
14
A day of sweet refection,
A day of holy love,
A day of resurrection
From earth to things abore.
To-day on weary nations
The heavenly Manna falls,
To holy convocations
The silver trumpet calls,
"Where Gospel-light is glowing
With pure and radiant beams,
And living water flowing
With soul-refreshing streams.
New graces ever gaining
From this our day of rest,
"We reach th? Rest, remaining
To spirits of the blest ;
To Holy Ghost be praises,
ToFatqeb and to Sox ;
The Church her voice upraises
To Thee, blest Tusee in Oxe. Amea

YESTERDAY, with exultation,
1 Joined the world in celebration
Of her promised Savioubs birth ;
Yesterday the angel-nation
Poured the strains of jubilation
O'er the Monarch lorn on earth;
But to-day o'er death victorious,
By his faith and actions glorious,
By his miracles renowned.
Bee the Deacon triumph gai: ing.
'Mi Is* the faithless faith sustaining,
First of holy martyrs found.
Onward, champion, falter never,
Sure of sure reward for ever,
Holy Stephen, persevere :
Perjured witnesses confounding,
Satin's synagogue astounding
By thy doctrine true and clear.
Thine own Witness is in heaven,
True and Faithful, to thee g:.ven,
Witness of thy b'.amel ssness :
By Thy name a'C-owri implying,
Meet it is thou shoul 1st be dying
For the Crown of dfUBOOMI
For the Crown that fadeth never
Bear the torturer's brief end* avour
Victory waits to end the stride:
Death sbafl be thy life's beginning,
And life's losing be the winning
Of the true and better life.
Filled with God's most Holy SprBir
See the heaven thou shall inherit,
Stephen, gaze into the skies:
There God's priory steadfast viewing
Thence t y rietor-ctrength renewing,
Pant for" thy eternal prize.
S^e, as Jewish foes i ivade the?,
See how Jsnns stands to ail thee,
Stanc's at God's right hand on hi^h:
Tell how opened heaven is shown thee,
T. II how J. sus waits to own thee,
Tell it with thy lat.st cry.
As the dying Martyr kneeleth,
For his murderers he appealeth,
For their madness gri ;vi ig sore ;
Then in Christ he sleepeth -weetiy,
And with vJhrist he reigneth meetly,
Martyr flrst-truits, evermore. Amen.

1 In Whom -we have redemption through His Blood, the forgiveness of sins."
TT7EARY of earth and laden with my sin,
>Y I look at heaven and long to enter in,
But there no evil thing may find a home :
And yet I hear a voice that bids me M Come."
So vile I am, how dare I hope to stand
In the pure glory of that holy land ?
Before the whiteness of that Throne appear ?
Yet there are Hands stretched out to draw me near.
The while I fain would tread the heavenly way,
Evil is ever with me day by day ;
Yet on mine ears the gracious tidings fall,
"Repent, confess, thou shalt be loosed from alL"
It is the voice of Jf.sus that I hear,
His are the Hands stretched out to draw me near,
And His the Blood that can for all atone,
And set me faultless there before the Throne.
'Twas He Who found me on the deathly wild,
And made me heir of heaven, the Fathfe's child,
And day by day, whereby my soul may live,
Gives me His grace of pardon, and will give.
O great Absolver, grant my soul may wear
The lowliest garb of penitence and prayer,
That in the Father's courts my glorious dress
May be the garment of Thy righteousness.
Yea, Thou wilt answer for me, Righteous Lord:
Thine all the merits, mine the great reward ;
Thine the sharp thorns, and mine the golden crown,
Mine the life won, and Thine the life laid down.
Naught can I bring, dear Lord, for all I owe,
Yet let my full heart what it can bestow ;
Like Mary's gift let my devotion prove,
Forgiven greatly, how I greatly love. Amen,

OJESU CHPwIST, if aught there be
That, more than all beside,
In ever-painful memory
Must in my heart abide,
It is that deep ingratitude
Which I to Thee have shewn,
"Who didst for me in tears and Blood
Upon the Cross atone.
Alas, how with my actions all
Has this defect entwined ;
How has it poisoned with its gall
My spirit, heart, and mind !
1 When he thought thereon, he •wept,"'
Alas, through this, how many a gem
I"ve rudely cast away.
That might "have formed my diadem
In everlasting day !
Yet thong1! the time be past and gone,
Though little mure remains.
Though naught is all that can be done
E'en with my utmost pains ;
Still will I strive, O Saviour mine,
To do what in me lies ;
For never did Thy glance divine
A contrite heart despise. Amen.

Part I.
SING, my tongue, the glorious battle,
Sing the laat, the dread affray ;
O'er the Cross, the Victor s trophy,
Sound the glad triumphal lay,
How, the pains of death enduring,
Earth's Redeemer won the day.
He, our Maker, deeply grieving
That the first-mad ! Adam fell,
When he ate the fruit forbidden
Whose reward was death and hell,
Marked c en then this tree the ruin
Of the first tree to dispel.
Thus the work for our salvation
lie ordained to be done ;
To the traitor's art opposing
Art yet deeper than his own ;
Thence the remedy procuring
Whence the fatal wound begun.
Therefore, when at length the fulness
Of ill' appointed time was come,
He was sent, the world's Creator,
From the Father's heavenly home,
And was found in human fashion,
Offspring of the Virgin's womb.
Lo. Tie lies an Infant weeping.
Where the narrow manger stands,
While the Mother-Miid Mis members
Wraps in mean and lowly bands,
And the swaddling clothes is winding
Bound His helpless Feet and Hands,
20
The Cross of our Lord Jesus Christ."

VTOW the thirty years accomplished
1\ Which on earth He willed to see,
Born for this, He meets His Passion,
Gives Himself an offering free ;
On the Cross the Lamb is lifted,
There the Sacrifice to be.
There the nails and spear He suffers,
Vinegar, and gall, and reed ;
From His sacred Body pierced
Blood and Water both proceed ;
Precious flood, which all creation
From the stain of sin hath freed.
Faithful Cross, above all other
One and only noble Tree,
None in foliage, none in blossom,
None in fruit thy peer may be ;
Sweetest wood, and sweetest iron;
Sweetest weight is hung on thee.
Bend, O lofty Tree, thy branches,
Thy too rigid sinews bend ,
And awhile the stubborn hardness,
Which thy birth bestowed, suspend ;
And the Limbs of heaven's high Monarch
Gently on thine arms extend.
Thou alone wast counted worthy
This world's ransom to sustain,
That a shipwrecked race for ever
Might a port of refuge gain,
With the sacred Blood anointed
Of the Lamb for sinners slain.
Praise and honour to the Father,
Praise and honour to the Sox,
Praise and honour to the Spirit,
Ever Thber and ever One,
One in might, and one in glory.

His own " All hail," and, hearing,
May raise the victor strain.
Now let the heavens be joyful,
And earth her song begin.

And all that is therein ;
Let all things seen and unseen
Their notes of gladness blend,
For Christ the Lo?>o is risen,
Our Joy that hath no end. Amen,

HOLY Ghost, Illuminator,
Shed Thy beams upon our eyes,
Help us to look up with Stephen,
And to see, beyond the skies,
Where the Sox of Mai in glory
Standing is at God's right hand,
Beckoning on His martyr army,
Succouring His faithful ban J ;
See Him, Who is gone before us
Heavenly mansions to prepare,
See Him, Who is ever pleading
For us with prevailing prayer,
See Him Who with sound of trumpet
And with His angelic train,
Summoning the world to judgment,
On the clouds will come again.
Raise us up from earth to heaven,
Give us wings of faith and love,
Gales of holy aspirations
Wafting us to realms above ;
26
That, with hearts and minds uplifted,
We with Christ our Lord may dwell,
Where He sits enthroned in glory
In His heavenly Citadel.
So at last, when He appeareth,
We from out our graves may spring,
With our youth renewed like eagles,
Flocking round our Heuvenly King,
Caught up on the clouds of heaven,
And may meet Him in the air,
Rise to realms where He is reigning,
And may reign for ever there.
Glory he to God the Fatiife;
Glory be to God the Sox,
Dying, risen, ascending for us,
"Who the heavenly realm has won;
Glory to the Holy Spirit;

Glory both in earth and heaven,

To strains of joy tune every chord,

Tell how His covenant of grace
Unchanged shall ever stand.

To guide His Israel on their way,
He made their darkness light :
And have not we a sure retreat,

The Bread that came from heaven ;

Has living waters given :
A Rock have we, from whence the spring
In rich abundance flows ;
That Rock is Christ, our Priest, our King^
Who life and health bestows.
O may we prize this blessed Food,
And trust our heavenly Guide ;
So shall we find death's fearful flood
Serene as Jordan's tide,
And safely reach that happy shore,
The land of peace and rest,
Where ancrels worship and adore
In God's own Presence blest. AmeE

If I ask Him to receive me,

receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory,
and blessing."
COME let us join our cheerful songs
With angels round the Throne ;
Ten thousand thousand are their tongues,
But all their joys are one.
"Worthy the Lamb that died,*-1 they cry,
•' To be exalted thus ; "
"• Worthy the Lamb," our iips reply,
44 For ile was slain for us.'1
Jfsus is worthy to receive
Honour and power divine :

one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of bairns."1
C'OME. ye faithful, raise the anthem,
i Cleave the skies with shouts of praise
Bing to Hira Who foirid the ransom,
Ancient of eternal days,
God of Gon, the Word Incarnate,
Whom the heaven of heaven obeys.
Ere He raised the lofty mountain^,
Formed the seas, or built the sky,
Love eternal, free, and boundless,
Moved the Lord of Life to die,
Fore-ordained the Prince of Princes
For the throne of Calvary.
There for us and our redemption,
See Him all His life-blood pour!
There He wins our full salvation,
Dies that we may die no more :
Then, arising, lives for ever,
Reigning where He was before.
High on yon celestial mountains
Stands His gem-built throne, all bright,
Midst unending Alleluias
Bursting from the 6ons of light;
Sion's people tell His praises,
Victor after hard-won fight.
Bring your harps, and bring your odoursi
Sweep the string and pour "the lay;
Let the earth proclaim His wonders,
King of that celestial day ;
He the Lamb once slain is worthy,
Who was dead and lives for aye.

"And He arose and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still.'"
FIERCE raged the tempest o'er the deep,
Watch did Thine anxious servants keep,
But Thou wast wrapped in guileless sleep,
Calm and still.
" Save, Lord, we perish," was their cry,
" O save us in our agony ! "
Thy word above the storm rose high,
" Peace, be still.'1
The wild winds hushed ; the angry deep
Sank, like a little child, to sleep;
The sullen billows cease to leap,
At Thy will.

" Men ought always to
WHAT various hindrances we meet
In coming to the Mercy-seat ;
Yet who, that knows the worth of prayer,
But wishes to be often there?
Prayer makes the darkened cloud withdraw,
Prayer climbs the ladder Jacob saw,
Gives exercise to faith and love,
Brings every blessing from above.
Restraining prayer we cease to fight :
Prayer makes the Christian's armour bright;
And Satan trembles when he sees
The weakest saint upon his knees.
"When Motes stood with arms spread wide,
Success was found on Israel's side ;

pray, and not to faint."
But when through weariness they failed,
That moment Amalek prevailed.
TTave we no words ? ah, think again ;
"Words flow apace when we complain,
And fill our f< How-creature's ear
With the sad tale of all our care.
Were half the breath thus vainly spent
To heaven in supplication sent,
Our cheerful song would oftener be,
Hear what the Lord hath done for me.
O Lord, increase our faith and love.
That we may all Thy goodness prove,
And gain from Thy exhaustless store
The fruits of prayer for evermore. Amem.

1 He is the Head of the Body, the Church."
THE Church's one foundation
Is Jkstjs Christ her Lord;
She is His new creation
By water and the Word :
From heaven He came and sought her
To be His holy Bride,
With His own Blood He bought her
And for her life He died.
Elect from every nation,
Yet one o'er all the earth,
Her charter of salvation
O le Loud, one Faith, one Birth ;
One Holy Name she blesses,
Partakes one Holy Food,
And to one hope she presses
With every grace endued.
Though with a scornful wonder
Men see her sore opprest,
By schisms reut asunder,
By heresies distrust,
48
Yet saints their watch are keeping.
Their cry goes up, " How long?"
And soon the night of weeping
Shall be the morn of song.
Mid toil, and tribulation,
And tumult of her war,
She waits the consummation
Of peace for evermore ;
Till with the vision glorious
Her longing eyes are blest,
And the great Church victorious
Shall be the Church at rest
Yet she on earth hath union
With God the Three in Oxi,
And mystic sweet communion
With those whose rest is won:
O happy ones and holy!
Lord, give us grace that we
Like them, the meek and lowly,
On high may dwell with Thee. Amen.

Where with the Living Ones, mystical Four,
Cherubim, Seraphim bow and. adore.
Then, when the earth was first poised in mid space,
Then, when the planets first sped on their race,
Then, when were ended the six days" employ
Then all the sons of Gon shouted fur joy.
Still let them succour us : still let them fight,
Lord of angelic hosts, battling for right ;
Till, where their anthems they ceaselessly pour,
"We with the Angels may bow and adore. Amen.

Hymn 322— (Fiest Tom.)
M Eye hath not seen nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man the
things which God hath prepared for them that love Him. But God hath
reveled them unto us by His Spirit."
LIGHTS abode. Celestial Salem,
Vision whence true peace doth spring,
Brighter than the heart can fancy,
Mansion of the Highest King;
O how glorious are the praises
Which of thee the prophets smg!
There for ever and for ever
Alleluia is out-poured,
For unending, for unbroken
Is the feast-day of the Lord ;
All is pure, and all is holy
That within thy walls is stored.
There no cloud nor passing vapour
Dims the brightness of the air ;
Endless noon-day glorious noon-day,
From the Sun of suns is there ;
• There no night brings rest from labour,
I\r unknown are toil and care.
O how glorious and re^plendpnt,
Fragile body, shalt thou be.
When endued with so much beauty,
Full of health, and strong and free,
Full of vigour, full of pleasure
That shall last eternally!
Now with gladness, now with courage
B^ar the burden on thee laid,
That hereafter these thy labours
May with endless gifts be paid,
And in everlasting glory
Thou with brightness be arrayed.
Laud and honour to the Father,
Laud and honour to the Sox,
Laud and honour to the Spirit,
Ever Tira and ever One,
Consubstantial, Co-eternal
While unending ages run. Amen.

Long as the cross we bear,
O let our souls o 1 Thee be cast

Till Thou Thyself bestow,

O Listen whilst we sing,

Praises to our King.
All we have we offer ;
All we hope to be,
Boiy, soul, and spirit,
All we yield to Thee,
Nearer, ever nearer,
Ciihist. we draw to Thee,
Deep in adoration
Beading low the knee :
Thou for our redemption
Camst on earth to die ;
Thou, that we might follow,
Hast gone up oa high.
Great and ever greater
Are Thy mercies here,
True and everlasting
Are the glories there,
"Where no pain, or sorrow,
Toil, or care is known,
Where the ange1 -legions
Circle round Thy throne.
Dark and ever darker
Was the win'ry past,
Now a ray of gladness
O'er our path i- cact ;
Every day tha" passpth,
Every hour that flies,
Tells of love unfeumed,
Love that never die-s.
Clearer still and dearer
Dawns the light from heaven,
In our sadness bringing
News of sin forgiven ;
Life has lost its shadows,
Pure the light within ;
Thou hast shed Thy radiauco
On a world of sia
Brighter still and brighter
Glows the western sun,
Shedding all its gladness
O er our work that's done ;
Time will soon be over,
Toil and sorrow past,
May we. Blessed Savioub,
Find a rest at last.
Onward, ever onward,
Journeying o'er the road
Worn by saints before us,
Journeying on to God ;
Lemti ig all behind us,
M iy we hasten on.
Backward never looking
Till the prize is won.

1 Let my supplication come before Thee ; deliver me, according to Thy Word."
JESUS, Loud of life and glory,
Bend from heaven Thy gracious ear;
"While our waiting souls adore Thee,
Friend of helpless sinners hear :
By Thy mercy,
O deliver us, good Loud.
Fmm the depths of nature's blindness,
From the hardening power of sin,
From all m;ilice and unkindness,
From the pride that lurks within,
By Thy mercy.
O deliver us, good Loud.
TVhei temptation sorely presses,
In the day of Satan's power,
In our times of deep distresses,
In pac1! d^rk and trying hour,
Bv Thy mercy.
O deliver us, good Loud.
"When the world around is smiling,
In the time of wealth and ease,
Earthly joys our hearts beguiling,
In the day of health and peace,
By Thy merey,
0 deliver us, good Lord.
In the weary hours of sickness,
In the times of grief and pain,
When we feel our mortal weakness,
When the creature's help is vain,
By Thy mercy,
0 deliver us, good Lord.
In the solemn hour of dying,
In the awful judgment day,
Mav our souls, on Thee relying,
Find Thee still our Hope and Stay:
Bv Thy mercy,
0 deliver us, good Lord. Amen.

LEAD, Kindly Light, amid the encircling gloom,
Lead Thou me on ;
The night is dark, and I am far from home,
Lead Thou me on.
Keep Thou my feet ; I do not ask to see
The distant scene : one step enough for me.
I was not ever thus, nor prayed that Thou
Shouldst lead me on ;
I lored to choose and see my path ; but now
Lead Thou me on.
I loved the garish day. and. spite of fears,
Pride ruled my will : remember not past years.
So long Thv power ha^h blest me, sure it still
Will lead me on
O'er moor and fen. oVr crag and torrent, till
The night is gone,
And with the morn those angel faces smile
Which I have loved long since, aud lost awhile. Amen.

" There remaineth a rest to the people of God."
OWHAT the joy and the glory must be,
Those endless Sabbaths the blessed ones see;
Crown for the valiant, to weary ones rest ;
God shall be all and in all ever blest.
"What are the Monarch. His court, and TTis throne?
What are the peace, and the joy that they own?
O. that the blest ones, who in it have share,
All that they feel could as fully declare.
Truly Jerusalem nam'1 we that shore,
Vision of Peace, that brings joy evermore;
"Wish and fulfilment can severed be ne'er,
Nor the thing prayed for come short of the prayer.
There, where no troubles distraction can bring,
We the sweet anthems of Sion shall sing,
While for Thy grace, Loud, their voices of praise
Thy blessed people eternally raise.
There dawns no Sabbath, no Sabbath is o'er,
Those Sabbath-keepers have one evermore;
One and unending is that triumph-song
Which to the angels and us shall belong.
Now in the meanwhile with hearts raised on high,
We for that country must yearn and must sigh;
Seeking Jerusalem, dear nntive land.
Through our long exile on Babylon's strand.
Low before TTim with our praises we fall.
Op Whom, and in Whom, and through Whom are all:
Of Whom, the Father ; and in Whom, the Sov;
Through Whom, the Spirit, with Them ever One. Amen.

Ne'er may the heart unsolaced be

Now hidden 'neath the outward sign,

Whom each bright Angel serves and fears,
Who on Thy Throne rememberest yet

Whose feet the hills of Nazareth trod,

And ask, in Thine appointed way,
Confirm us in Thy grace to-day.
We need Thee more than tongue can speak,
'Mid foes that well might cast us down ;
But thousands, onee as young and weak,
Have fought the fi^ht, and won the crown
We ask the help that bore them through,
We trust the Faithful and the True.

Which comes in sevenfold might from heaven;

SAVIOUR, sprinkle many nations,
Fruitful let Thy sorrows be ;
By Thy pains and consolations
Draw the Gentiles unto Thee:
Of Thy Cross the wondrous story,
Be it to the nations told ;
Let them see Thee in Thy glory,
And Thy mercy manifold.
Far and wide, though all unknowing,
Pants for Thee each mortal breast ;
Human tears for Thee are flowing,
Human hearts in Thee would rest :
Thirsting, as for dews of even.
As the new-mown grass for rain,
Thee they seek, as Gon of heaven,
Thee, as Man, for siuners slain.
Saviour, lo, the isles are waiting,
Stretched the hand, and strained the sight,
For Thy Spisit new creating,

Give the word, and of the preacher
Speed the foot, and touch the tongue,
Till on earth by every creature
Glory to the Lamb be sung. Amen,

And waste the precious hours of life

There lurks the secret love of sin ;
A wayward will, or anxious fears,

" They are in peace."
TENDER Shepherd, Thou hast stilled
Now Thy little lamb's brief weeping:
Ah, how peaceful, pale, and mild,
In its narrow bed 'tis sleeping,
And no sigh of anguish sore
Heaves that little bosom more.
In this world of care and pain,
Loud, Thou wouldst no longer leave it;
To the sunny, heavenly plain
Thou dost now with joy receive it;
Clothed in robes of spotless white
Now it dwells with Thee in light.
Ah. Losr> Jrsr, grant that we
"Where it lives may soon be living,
And the lovely pastures see
That its heavenly food are giving;
Then the Grain of death we prove,
Though Thou take what most we love.
Amen.

"The child Jesus."
ONCE in royal David's City
Stood a lowly cattle shed,
Where a mother laid her Baby,
In a manger for His bed :
Mary was that mother mild,
Jesus Christ her little Child.
He came down to earth from heaven
Who is God and Lord of all,
And His shelter was a stable,
And His cradle was a stall ;
With the poor, and mean, and lowly,
Lived on eartn our Saviour Holy.
And. through all His wondrous childhood,
He would honour, and obey.
Love, and watch the lowly maiden
In whose gentle arms lie lay ;
Christian children all must be
^ld, obedient, good as He.
For He is our childhood's Pattern,
Day by day like us He grew,
He was little, weak, and helpless,
Tears and smiles like us He kneir;
And He feeleth for our sadness.
And He shareth in our gladness.
And our eyes at last shall see Him,
Through His own redeeming love,
For that Child so dear and gentle
Is our Lord in heaven above ;
And He leads His children on
To the place where He is gone.
N I in that poor lowly stable,
With the oxen standing by,
We shall see Him ; but in heaven,
Set at God's right hand on high ;
When like stars His children crowned
All in white shall wait around. Amen,
89
Hymn 362.
"While we were yet sinners, Ciirist died for us.'
THERE is a green hill faraway,
Without a city wall,
Where the dear Lord was crucified
Who died to save us all.
We may not know, we cannot tell
What pains He had to bear,
But we believe it was for us
He hung and suffered there.
ne died that we might be forgiven,
He died to make us good,
That we might go at last to heaven,
Saved by His precious Blood.
There was no other good enough
To pay the price of sin,
He only could unlock the gate
Of heaven, and let us in.
O, dearly, dearly has He loved,
And we must love Him too.
And trust in His redeeming Blood,
And try His works to do. Amen.

Who is so high and good and great?
We know the Holy Innocents
Laid down for Him their infant life,

We wear the cross they wore of old,
Our lips have learned like vows to make
"We need not die ; we cannot fight ;

The thoughts of pride and anger rise,
When bitter words are on our tongues

Give gentle answers back again,
And fight a battle for our Loiii).
With smiles of p?ace, and looks of lover

Bid kind good humour brighten there.

Ani thee He choose from whom to take
True flesh His Flesh to be ;
In It to suffer f}r our sake,
By It to mike us free.

To thee He cried for food ;
Thy gentle nursing soothed to rest

O wondrous depth of grace Divine
That He should bend so low ;
And, Miry, O what joy was thine
In His dear love to know:
Joy to be Mother of the Loud ;
And thine the truer bliss.
In every thought, and deed, and word,
To be for ever His.
And as He loves thee. Mother dear,
We too will love thee well;
And in His Temple, year by year,
Thy joy and glory tell.
Jssu, the Virgin's Holy Scv,
We praise Thee ami adore,
Who art with God the Father One
And SprBiT evermore. Amen.

Qf every tongue redeemed to Gcu»,
Arrayed i.i garments washed in Blood.
Through tribulation great they camp,

And sing the triumphs of His grace ;

Through endless years to live and reign;
Thm hast redeemed us by Thy Blood,
And made us kings and priests to God."

That holy saints and martyrs trod ;
Wage to the end the glorious strife,
And win, like them, a crown of life. Amen.

'• After this I beheld, and lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all
nations and kindred and people and tongues, stood before the throne and before
the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands."
Marching with Thy Cross their banner
They have triumphed following
HARK! the sound of holy voices
Chanting, at the crystal sea,
Alleluia, Alleluia,
Alleluia, Lord to Thee .
Multitude, which none can number,
Like the stars in glory stands,
Clothed in white apparel, holding
Palms of victory ia their hands.

Saintlv Maiden, jrodly Matron,
Widows who have watched to prayer,
Joined in holy concert* sinking
To the Lord of all are there.
They have come from tribulation,
And have washed their robes in blood,
"Washed them in the Blood of Jfsus;
Tri-^d they were and firm they stood ;
Marked, imprisoned, stoned, tormented,
Sawn asunder, slain with sword,
They have conquered death and Satan
By the might of Christ the Lord.

Thee, the Captain of salvation.
Thee their Savioui:, and their King;
Gladly Loud, with Thee they suffered;
Gladly, Lord, with Thee they died;
Ard by death to life immortal
They were born and glorified.
Now they reign in heavenly jrlory,
Now they walk in golden light,
Now they drink, as from a river,
Holy bliss and infinite ;
Love and peace they taste for ever,
And all truth and knowledge see
In the Beatific Vision
Of the Blessed Trinity.
God of G<>n. the One-Begotten,

In Whose Body joined together
All the saints for ever dwell,
Pour upon us of Thy fulness,

LET our Choir new anthems raise
Wake the song of gladness ;
Gon Himself to joy and praise
Turns the martyrs' sadness :
Bright the day that won their crown,
Opened heaven's bright portal,
As they laid the mortal down
To put on th' immortal.
Xever flinched they from the flam*,
From the torture never ;
Vain the foeman's sharpest aim,

Decked in all its glory,

'• r heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters,
and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia, for the Lord God Om-
nipotent reigueth/'
HARK ! the song of Juhilee ;
Loud a ; mighty thunders roar,
Or the fulness of the sea,
When it breaks upon the shore ;
Alleluia ! for the Lord
God Omnipotent shall reign ;
Alleluia ! let the word
Echo round the earth and main.
Alleluia ! — Hark ! the sound,
From the centre to the skies,
"Wakes above, beneath, around, ■
All creation's harmonies;
See Jehovah's banner furled ;
Sheathed His sword ; He speaks — 'tis done ;
And the kingdoms of this world
Are the kingdoms of His Sox.
He shall reign from pole to pole
With illimitable sway ;
He shall reign, when like a scroll
Yonder heavens have passed away ;
Then the end ; beneath His rod
Man's last enemy shall fall ;
All luia! Chkist in Gon,
God in (Jurist is all in all. Amen.

MY Gor>! how endless is Thy Love I
Thy gifts are everv evening new ;
And mornins: mercies from above
Gently distil like early dew.
Thon spread' st the curtains of the night,
Great Guardian of my sleeping hours!
Thy sovereign Word restores the light.
And strengthens all my wearied powers.
I yieH thoce powers to Thy command ;
To Thee I consecrate my days :
Perpetual blessings from Thy Hand
Demand perpetual songs of praise,
To Father. Soy. and Holt Gttost,
The God who n earth a'id Heaven adore,
From men and from the angel-host,
Be praise and glory evermore. Amen.

14 The Lord is my Shepherd.'*
THE Loan my pasture shall prepare-,
And feed me with a shepherd1 1 care ;
Hi3 presence shall my wants supply,
And guard me with a w.ttchful eye ;
My noon-day walks He shall attend,
And all my midnight hours defeud.
"When in the sultry glebe I faint,
Or on the thirsty mountain pant.
To fertile vales, and dewy meads,
My weary wandering steps He leads :
"Where peaceful riv -rs, soft and slow,
Amidst the Verdant landscape flow.
Though in the path of death I tread,
With gloomy horrors overspread ;
My stedfast heart shall fear no ill,
For Thou, O LftftD, art with me still ;
Thy rod and staff shall give me aid,
And guide me through the dreadful shade. Amen.

1 Tbou shalt see the Land before thee.'
THERE is a Land of pure delight,
Where Saints immort :1 reign,
Eterpal d iy excludes the night,
And pleasures baJUh p.rin.
Th<»re everlasting spring abides,
And n.ver-witheri g flowers;
Death, like a narrow sea, divides
This heavenly land from ours.
Swept fi 'ids beyond the swelling flood
St ind dr.*sse1 in living greei :
So ro the Jews old Canaan stood,
While Jordan rolled between.
120
O ! could we make our doubts remove,
Those gloomy doubts that rise,
And see the Canaan that we love,
With unbeclouded eyes ;
Coul 1 we but climb where Moses stood,
And view the Ian Iscipe o'er;
N >t Jordan's stream. n->t death's cold flood,
Should fright us from the shore.
O praise the Father, praise the Sont,
The Lamb for sinners given,
And Holy Ghost, through Whom alone
Our hearts are raised to Heaven.
Amen.

And mind and memory flee,
When Thou shah in Thy Kingdom come,

Where'er our changeful lot is cast ;
Glad, when Thy gracious smile we see,
